A member asked:

I have urge continence. how can i maintain a normal sex life?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Empty your bladder: Empty your bladder prior to and as soon as convenient after intercourse. Using a timed voiding schedule of every 2 -3 hours of emptying the bladder whether you have to go or not will eliminate the need to "depend(s)" on anyone else.
